Bill de Blasio drops out of Congress race after dismal polling

Strike two!

Bill de Blasio dropped his bid to represent the left-leaning 10th Congressional District on Tuesday, admitting that “it’s not going work out.”

“I’ve really listened carefully to people and it’s clear to me that when it comes to this congressional district, people are looking for another option. And I respect that,” the former mayor said in a video statement posted to Twitter.

“Even though this is not going to work out, I hope you know how much I appreciate you and we’re gonna do a lot together to make this city better in the future.”

De Blasio quit the race one day after a poll released by the progressive Working Families Party showed more than half of undecided Democratic voters in the district definitely would not back him.

I’ve really listened carefully to people

And they told him he sucked.

When you’ve lost, ‘The Progressive Working Families Party’ you KNOW you’re TOAST!

It’s hard to believe he thought he stood a chance, but we all know he’s a delusional fool.

That does not bother me- some of the smartest people I know smoked it. Also some of the most creative.

But he was stupid BEFORE he smoked it, i bet.

I’m glad Bill Dumb Blasio lost his election. Let’s just hope more commies lose their elections as well.

Obviously a result of an uncooperative media, which is a real shock to the jerk. He was propped up and supported by the media for the prior decade no matter how bad he governed. Like a spoiled rich brat who’s been cut off from his trust fund and family.

His ego is so big he thinks he is fit to be president. He wasn’t fit to be mayor of New York, or any other town for that matter. He’s an arrogant radical leftist.

Likely this district will belong to incumbent Mondaire Jones, a real piece of work.

Looks like Jew-hater Yuh-Line Niou could be the dark horse.
